DD is having a growth spurt, she has only recently turned 11 but in the last 4 or five months her feet have gone from a three and a half to a four and a half and are creeping towards a five. I'm finding getting shoes for her a nightmare! It has always been tricky, as she has wide feet with a high instep, but at least by throwing cash at the problem and hunting far and wide I could find something for her. Now there seems to be nothing. She can't wear almond-y toes as her feet are wide at the toe joint and they squash her toes in (I've just taken her for a check as I was worried she might have the beginning of bunions) and for her size, all the shoes seem more teenage and pointed. She needs new school shoes, everything. I want shoes that are age appropriate and that aren't too fashiony so that they are suitable for soft growing feet. I used to get a mix of Angulus and Startrite but there is nothing in her size. Girls feet seem to be getting bigger generally, she is not alone in her shoe size among her peers (I was 16 before I hit a size 5). I live in the middle of nowhere which makes it harder. So any tips as to brands or styles v gratefully received.
